- Pastéis de Belém - Since 1837
In the early 19th century, in Belém, adjacent to the Jerónimos Monastery, there was a sugar cane refinery linked to a small trading post. Following the Liberal revolution of 1820, all convents and monasteries in Portugal were closed in 1834, leading to the expulsion of clergy and workers. In 1837, the production of “Pastéis de Belém” commenced in facilities attached to the refinery, using the ancient “secret recipe” from the Monastery. This recipe is exclusively known and passed down to the master pastry chefs who craft them by hand at the “Oficina do Segredo.” The recipe remains unchanged to this day.
A taste of Portugal…

- Miradouro da Graça (Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen) - The Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen Viewpoint, formerly the Graça Viewpoint, is located in São Vicente (Graça), in the former churchyard of the Convento da Graça Church in Lisbon.
In Largo da Graça, next to the Church, there is a terrace at Miradouro da Graça offering one of the city’s most beautiful views. This view is only surpassed by that of the Miradouro da Senhora do Monte, just a few hundred meters away. The panorama of rooftops and buildings is less dramatic than the castle view, but it remains a popular spot. The Graça neighborhood developed in the late 19th century. Behind the Viewpoint is the Augustinian monastery, founded in 1271 and rebuilt after the earthquake.

It was constructed under the guidance of the renowned engineer Raoul Mesnier du Ponsard, who completed similar projects across the country. Although planned since the 1890s, the project was only approved by Lisbon City Council in 1900, the year construction began.
